Raven Black, the darkly theatrical metal phenomenon, is about to shatter reality with two devastating new releases: Cry of the Raven and Dead. Known for blending metal’s ferocity with a Tim Burton-esque world of eerie fantasy, Raven Black is ready to deliver their most intense, emotionally charged, and sonically powerful work to date. Following years of captivating fans with their unique “dark carnival metal” sound, Raven Black returns sharper, heavier, and more fearless than ever. Cry of the Raven promises a soaring, sinister journey through rage, resilience, and redemption—driven by bone-crushing riffs, haunting melodies, and Raven’s unmistakable voice cutting through the storm. Dead sinks even deeper, exploring mortality, loss, and the shadows of the soul with a theatrical ferocity that only this band can conjure. CRY OF THE RAVEN Song is about Raven’s hidden struggle with the demands and pressure while undergoing her own personal and private depression and illness. The stuff people don’t see or know the truth about. We all have some kind of suffering in silence. We are never alone in it but we sometimes choose to keep it hidden. DEAD a power metal song about a vampire and living as Dead in a world where others do not realize the pain and suffering of living dead but we are sleeping through our lives ignorant to the true meaning of life.

The band released their first self-titled album on February 2, 2018. Chicago music veteran Matt Mercado engineered it at Sonic Palace Studios in Oak Park, Illinois, while mixing was handled in Los Angeles by Grammy-nominated, multi-Platinum producer and mixer Ulrich Wild (known for his work with Pantera, Static-X, White Zombie, Deftones, and Breaking Benjamin). THE OUTFIT aims to bring the rock scene back to its roots with a modern edge. The album’s lead single, “Soldier Boy,” received significant airplay on rock radio stations and peaked at number 34 on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock Radio Chart. Following the success of “Soldier Boy,” the track “Wire” reached the 28th spot on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock Indicator Chart. On March 27, 2020, The Outfit released their second album, titled "Viking". The music video for the title track “Viking” has garnered over 380,000 views on YouTube. Ulrich Wild returned to mix the album, enabling the band to achieve a classic rock sound with a contemporary twist. The song “Come Alive” charted at number 38 on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock Indicator Chart and has over 216,000 streams on Spotify. The band's latest album, entitled "Go", was released on April 19, 2024.

Fusing jagged riffs, pulse-pounding drums, and soul-tearing vocals, “Withering Away” delivers a visceral gut punch wrapped in cinematic atmosphere. It’s the sound of drowning in your own mind, clawing at the walls of isolation, and finding the strength to scream through the silence. The Estes Method doesn't just perform music—they bleed it. "Withering Away" captures the slow, internal collapse that happens when comfort turns into confinement. It reflects the numbness that sets in when you’re chasing relief but sinking deeper—watching the person you used to be slip further into the background. The song explores the isolation, shame, and quiet destruction that lives just beneath the surface—where you can’t breathe, can’t feel, and can’t see a way out. But it also marks a turning point: the moment you see the storm for what it is and start fighting your way back. In the end, "Withering Away" is about finding the strength to face yourself and begin again.

Their new single, “BOTTOM SHELF,” drops today — and it’s a bruising, soul-shaking anthem that refuses to be ignored. "BOTTOM SHELF" is one of our favorite songs to date. Not only does it encapsulate our satirical perspectives as writers and musical artists, but it’s a true story about growing up. Being the underdog or a wallflower. Trying to fit in and find yourself, truthfully, wanting to have cool shit like a lot of the kids around you but just not being able to afford it. It just always felt like we were on the bottom shelf. Stylistically we were able to capture the essence of our influences, (ADTR, Pierce the Veil and Weezer) and mold it into our newly developed sound. It’s bright, but heavy, it’s kinda comedic but ironically uplifting by the end of it. To me it feels like a strong representation of what 2025 is; the next generation of music with a nod to nostalgia. LISTEN ON VARIOUS STREAMING PLATFORMS HERE SPOTIFY APPLE MUSIC  |
